Our family is taking our first cruise ever, to Alaska, in August! should we really bring hats and gloves to do a walk on a glacier and to wear outside on ship? Others have mentioned rain gear too--just trying to get a handle on what to pack and if we really need all of this. We're on Holland America, doing Juneau, Ketchikan, Sitka, glacier bay, victoria, and 3 days in Seattle.
any suggestions people have would be welcome!!

Hi Rorry , I was really glad that I brought warm clothing with me for my cruise to Alaska on the Zuiderdam . However , it is best to dress in layers and of course an umbrella will come in handy if you do not have rain gear with you . I'm sure you will experience liquid sunshine at one or more points of your cruise . Enjoy this fabulous cruise destination ! Lane
